    Long shot -- help me buy a house - selling 08 Z06, 24K miles, immaculate

    I do not like the color. With that said I don't think the nerds here can remotely fathom how awesome that car is. If you haven't taken it to MSR at least once, then shame on you!!! I had an 08 C6 Z51 and it was nothing short of spectacular, so I know first hand what it feels like to have all...

    Intel Announces Intel SSD DC S3700 Series

    My exuberance about it not needing trim is for scenario's where the RAID array doesn't support trim. Which is pretty much all the high end SAN/NAS boxes.

    Windows 8 Upgrade Offer Might Not Be Free

    No, that is a ridiculous statement. Metro apps are flawed by design because they have to be designed to run on a phone, a tablet, and PC, therefore not taking full advantage of either. Do you think full blown Photoshop could be a Metro app? No, it cant. The win8 strategy is clearly flawed.

    Windows 8 Upgrade Offer Might Not Be Free

    What is the point of Windows8? Apple didn't change their Mac OSX just to get people to use iPhone and Ipad. So Microsoft has to change desktop windows to get people to use Winpads and phones? That is the most boneheaded business move of all time. Additionally, why do I want to use Win8? There is...

    Download Windows 8 Consumer Preview

    All the nerds defending windows 8 don't have a clue about the IT field. IT directors of enterprise environments aren't going to touch Windows 8 with a 10 foot pole. When you have 20,000 employees to support that is 20,000 people you have to teach to use windows 8. "oh they will figure it out"...

    Windows 8 Consumer Preview to be released 02/29/2012

    My mind is blown. This is quite possibly the worse thing Microsoft has ever done to windows bar none. Microsoft Bob is a triumph of creativity compared to Windows 8. I will lay hard money down to all takers, this will go down as an even bigger flop than Vista. The Microsoft board meeting...

    Please dont buy a Seasonic

    I don't care how good the reviews are, if customer service is non-existent then it negates any positive aspects of the product in question. Six months ago I purchased a Seasonic X series 650 from newegg. S/N: R1005BA15031xxxx. Three weeks ago it died. I have left voicemails and sent several...

    standard front panel connector, how hard could it be?

    Yes, this is a nitpick but I am REALLY tired of sliding the little front panel connectors on the little pins. I'm also really tired of having them slide off at the slightest provocation. Couldn't the mobo manufacturers just standardize on a USB type header with a polarized connector like this...

    Consequences of no TRIM

    No. No SSD currently on the market has "always on" garbage collection. Not one. Every current GC implementation has to have idle time at the bios screen or some other method of "forced drive idle" for GC to be triggered.

    So instead of accepting that mainstream game companies are working on voxels your counter is that the video I posted didn't meet your criteria instead of taking the initiative to do a little research first?

    NVIDIA's Fermi GF100 Facts & Opinions @ [H]

    You increase the resolution of the car by decreasing the size of the voxels, all the way to the atomic level. Try that with polygons. I could crash that voxel model into a tree and have a super realistic looking smashed car, any speed, any direction. To do the same thing with polygons I have...
